Atletico Madrid has squeezed out a thin 1-0 win over Leganes in the second week of the La Liga season.
It was the second win in the same number of excursions this season for Diego Simeone's side, having brought down Getafe a weekend ago, in spite of the fact that this time he decided on a five-man defence, Efe news announced.
The first half was a random undertaking, with neither one of the teams looking generally excellent and Madrid's Alvaro Morata the only player on either squad to draw near to the contradicting goal, taking a low cross from Koke in the third minute yet terminating wide.
The second half began with somewhat more life than the first, with Joao Felix blundering an extraordinary open door in the 50th minute when he attempted a superfluous scissor-kick from around 12 yards with an open goal in front of him.
Atletico figured out how to jump aboard for the solitary goal of the match when Vitolo found the back of the net in the 71st minute.
